Hello all.I finally have a day with no plans except wrapping gifts.Its so cold here in Ny today.We keep getting little patches of snow,but I dont think we are suppose to get anything major.
I hope that you all had a good weekend & for those who didnt well....just try to let it go & begin a new week.I see we have a couple of new people posting & I myself am looking forwards to hearing more from them & helping them.We all remember or at least I know most of us remember our first post on here.How scared & alone we felt,so I know we can really comfort & help these people cause we all know what its like.
Well Im going to be on reading & such if anyone would like to talk.If not I hope you all have a nice day.....mj
This is my first Goos in awhile huh?Its amazing what sleep can do for someone....
GOOS MORNING MOLLY!

Hey Paula,
I don't expect Jack home til after the new year. I really wish he could be here at Christmas, its hard to explain the feeling of this house with out him here. Someone is missing. Hes doing well though, I spent most of the weekend with him, he is let out pretty much when ever I want to hold him.
I know you gotta go soon, have a great day Paula, its always good to see you.
Redd

Good morning everyone,
That is great Amy you can hold Jack whenever you're there. I know it will feel empty there at Christmas without him there, but just think, it will be the last Christmas without him there.

HEY LIZ!!! Goos to you!!! How are your kittys doing?OMG my real tree is up & wouldnt you know the real mj is the worst with it.Didnt you do Thanksgiving this weekend?Hope that went great for you.Did you guys get alot of snow that way?We ended with close to 6 inches here in Ulster County....mj
Hes just singing with his class tonight. They put on a little skit about Mary and Joseph, but the third graders do that. I love this kind of stuff, kids can be so funny. But they are so genuine.
Shopping is a joke. I just don't have the time. I'm almost done with Chance and hes all I can worry about. Mike and I are not exchanging, our gift to each other is for the other one to not have to stress about it. I think everyone understands this year, and if not, oh well.
I'll send you a picture of Chance and Bella, maybe I'll post it here.
Redd
Morning Liz,
You were so right about that damn cat and my tree. I think of you and Molly as shes climbing it.....grrrrr.
Yeah, it is cool about Jack. Hes cooing now.
Redd
Hey Molly,
Yep, we got close to 10 inches of snow here. I did have the Thanksgiving dinner with the kids over the weekend. It was real nice. I'm starting college next week. I can't believe it. Been wanting to get back into school, didn't expect to get in so soon. But I'm excited about it. How was your weekend?

My Mike & me do that every year.we tend to spoil each other all year if we want something so Christmas is really about the girls.For me this year is sort of like being born again.I dont know if you remember last Christmas I was still usen & I went to my grandmas & hid in the basement.I had such a bad time,this year Im going to try & go again & I know I wont be hiding this time.Its been almost a year & Im finally feeling good about myself & life & I want to show my family just how great I can be.
I loved those concerts.Your right the little ones are funny but I think they are the sweetest....mj
Liz when you get a free moment Id love to get a letter from you about going back to school & stuff.Im so proud of you for doing that.

Liz,
You're going to college? Thats awesome! What are you going to study? I have a friend who is 44 and just went back to study business.
Molly,
You will have a better Christmas this year, you've come so far. Last year was your rock bottom, this year is another step forward. I quit right after the holidays last year too.
Redd
Hey Redd,
Well, I'm leaning toward an elementary teacher. The courses I'm taking though if I change my mind can take me in so many directions. We'll see. It will take me a year and half to get my associates degree. All payed for. Getting Government Grant.

Thanks Molly,
Yeah, I used to work in the schools as a Monitor. I loved being with the little kids. Sure, there were some that got on your nerves but for the most part it was a lot of fun.

Goos Morning lovely ladies!
How great to see y'all here.
I don't have any kitties to bother my tree, i just have to finish decorating. Wrap presents? Ha! That's what they make gift bags for. I am getting my parents gifts in the mail today. Planning on decorating and then getting everything into a bag, making sure I have enough, I recycle those babies.
Moved some stuff out of the house yesterday, cleaned out the fridge, still have quite a few things to move, all of my good clothes are still hanging in there, but seeing as I'm not working all that much it doesn't matter.

Goos morning Janet,
Gift bags are the best thing since sliced bread. Good to hear the house is coming along.
Liz,
I think you'd make a great teacher. I'm really happy for you. A year and a half isn't that bad at all.
